While fusion items, especially foods, are all the rage, the opportunity to take the old mixed with the old with some new things is not an everyday thing in the sports card collecting hobby. The idea to take the iconic 1986-87 Fleer set, get autographs from key Hall of Fame players, like Kevin McHale, add a jersey patch, and a Beckett slab… the mix adds more scarcity and uniqueness for collectors to hunt. A raw Fleer #73 Kevin McHale is valued at $15. The collaboration between Jersey Fusion and Beckett on the 1986-87 card sold at a Heritage Auction in mid-April for $195.20.…

Paige Bueckers had not yet played a professional game before she (1) had her hometown in Minnesota change its name in her honor; (2) had one of the WNBA’s top-selling jerseys, including top sales at Dick’s Sporting Goods the week after the draft; and (3) while still in college, signed a NIL deal with the pro Unrivaled 3-on-3 league, giving her equity into the growing league. As the No. 1 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft – a surprise to no one – Bueckers signed her rookie contract shortly after the draft, and as the No. 1 pick she is in line to earn $78,831 her rookie season as per the terms of the WNBA collective bargaining agreement.

In the 1980’s, sports themed Miller Lite commercials gave home viewers a reason to stay in front of the TV during breaks. Pairing former professional athletes, like Bob Uecker, with comedy in a sports setting helped push the catch phrase “Great Taste, Less Filling” into the Americana lexicon. But marketing beer products to kids on sports cards, for Miller Lite, that practice ended with their 1985 NBA All-Stars set. Produced by Star Co., the 13-card set included Moses Malone, Adrian Dantley, Pat Riley (Lakers coach), K.C. Jones (Celtics coach), George Gervin, Ralph Sampson, Julius Irving, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Isiah Thomas, and Larry Bird. Card No. 4 is the most coveted for collectors, Michael Jordan. Values for the #4 MJ range from $60 (poor) to $2,400 (mint) raw. Collectors on…
